I want to have an object move like it is thrown up into the air and then make a half circle and descend....
I have worked out the equation:
y = -x^2+2x+1
but the object moves in a straight line....what am I missing here???

y = -x^2+2x+1
y = -(x^2-2x)+1
y = -(x^2-2x+1-1)+1
y = -(x-1)^2+2
I don't see a problem... +1 should be the initial height of the object though, and you need the initial x to make it follow the curve better..

It should have all the answers you need ;)
Oh and please don't mind the last few posts by me :eek:

Me and my likewise named companion here believe that the above named cat will not hover, but will spin around uncontrollably which will result in not only the eventual demise of the cat, but also the creating of a giant gravity well, sucking all universe into oblivion. The universe will then instantly be replaced by something devoud of the prenamed software bug.
What happens to the toast is still a complete riddle to us. This is since toast are actually multi-dimensional edible foods, and the behavior of such is even beyond modern quantum physical theories.
Hope this was informational. Bye.:D :p
This is the formulas you need for that thow...especialy the last oneI made for you....Don't thank me...but Newton....

What....don't you like newton???
Yeah everyone loves Newton :D
First, the Dutch Dude, his theory is obviously WRONG, mine rocks and you just can't prove otherwise :cool:
Second, Carsten's question has already been answered so that was totally unnecessary :p (the newtish formulae)
